He said that if the day comes when they can reunite, the group will prepare and plan thoroughly. He promised that NCT127 will not be \u201cNCT127 minus one.\u201d As they pledged to their fans\u2014known as NCTzens\u2014they will remain a team that takes pride in any formation and will not deliver performances that lack that pride. <\/p>\n<p> He warned that rumors or doubts about the relationship between Mark and the other members would bring unbearable sadness and a sense of injustice, and he pleaded with fans to let them preserve the special bond they\u2019ve built with supporters over 10 years. <\/p>\n<p> SM Entertainment earlier that day announced it had ended Mark\u2019s exclusive contract and would conclude his activities with NCT. The company said NCT 127 will continue as seven members \u2014 Johnny, Taeyong, Yuta, Doyoung, Jaehyun, Jungwoo and Haechan \u2014 and NCT DREAM will continue as six members \u2014 Renjun, Jeno, Haechan, Jaemin, Chenle and Jisung. <\/p>\n<p> [Sports Today reporter Im Si-ryeong <span><font color=\"blue\">ent@stoo.com<\/font><\/span>]<br \/>\u300cThe closest, most FunFun news \u24d2 Sports
